Nearly half of adults dined out, some 103 million, far more than barbequed (69 million)

Roman Catholics had the largest reported religious membership, with 66.4 million Americans, followed by the Southern Baptist Convention, with 16.2 million members (and over 94,000 pastors).

New York City raked in the most money of them all, over $58.5 billion, followed by Los Angeles, Chicago and San Francisco.





Mmmm... BBQ... Wink Time to go to lunch I guess..

my guess as to why soccer is so low is because it's still a relatively new development in high schools.

by that, i mean that almost every high school as a gym where basketball, volleyball etc can be played. but soccer is still in a growth stage i think.

none of the little farm towns around me had soccer when i was in school Laughing
